One of the first things she taught me to master was her fried chicken and I'm sure this herby, spicy melange will perk up fried chicken, fish, seafood, hush puppies and oven or air-fried goodies too! " - Michael W. Twitty

Origin & Sourcing
My grandmother Hazel C. Todd (“Grammy”) was an amazing cook. At first she didn’t know how to make much, her mother Mary and father Joseph had a lot of kids and my great grandmother, affectionately known as “Big Mama,” didn’t really do to much culinary training. She learned a lot by watching her father who made the large Sunday midday meal after church and after she married my Grandfather gleaned a lot from her aunties and the ladies in her circles. She really knew how to impart the taste of Alabama in her food.
A survivor of the Jim Crow South, my Grammy was dedicated to Civil Rights and Pan Africanism. She used to tell me, “sit up straight like Mr. Garvey!” Her food—her chicken and greens and candied yams and homemade rolls were always a hit and she gave away a lot to friends and neighbors even though she never really had a lot. One of the first things she taught me to master was her fried chicken and I’m sure this herby, spicy melange will perk up fried chicken, fish, seafood, hush puppies and oven or air-fried goodies too! The trick is to season the protein or veggie well not the flour. My grandmother was keen to remind me the spices would burn in the hot grease.

Chef Spotlight
With Chef Michael W. Twitty
Since the 16th century, people of African descent have shaped and defined the American palate. Their greatest impact on that palate is in the flavors we brought in our taste memory as a people in exile. Africans and their descendants, through many challenges and trials, have had an exuberant cultural expression based on taking pleasure in a culture created out of many origins; rooted in honoring ancient traditions, a dynamic sense of improvisation, and a creative fire that transformed the best and the worst in a cultural alloy unmatched." – Michael W. Twitty

- JLJungho L.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoMy favorite spice blend of all
Omg. With this chicken seasoning, I can make fried chicken with confidence to all my guests. This so far is my favorite blend Spice tribe offers.
- RRobynRated 5 out of 5 stars3 years agoWill improve nearly everything
What a great blend! It is indeed redolent of fried chicken, yet incredibly versatile. I just added some to a summer veggie medley (cymlins, eggplant, tomatoes, onions and okra) and the result was fantastic.
